She is known for her starring roles in the film Solomon's Perjury and the television drama Fujoshi, Ukkari Gay ni Kokuru, as well as supporting roles in the asadora Hiyokko and the taiga drama Reach Beyond the Blue Sky.

Career

Fujino joined an entertainment agency in October 2011.[1] In 2014, she was cast as the main character in Izuru Narushima's film Solomon's Perjury, an adaptation of Miyuki Miyabe's novel of the same name.[2] She was selected out of approximately 10,000 people in an audition process that took an unprecedent six months.[3] At the time of her debut, Fujino had only acted as an extra.[4] She used her character's name as her stage name because she "doesn't want to forget the feelings" of receiving the role.[3] Fujino received the Newcomer of the Year award at the 39th Japan Academy Film Prize for her role in the film.[5] Later in 2016, she transferred agencies from Theatre Academy to K-Factory.[6]

In May 2017, she appeared in Hiyokko as Toyoko Kanehira, a coworker and dormmate of the main character. This was her first appearance in an asadora.[7]

During the 2019 Japanese unified local elections, Fujino appeared in posters and online advertisements by the Kanagawa Prefectural Election Commission to encourage people to vote.[8]

Fujino was born on February 2, 2000, in Kanagawa, Japan. She is an only child.[9]
